A low power, low area shift register permits control over delay by dividing the shift register cells into a plurality of segments that are serially connected. A first selector provides data from a shift register input selectively to an input of one of the segments. A second selector provides data from an input or output of a selected cell of one segment of shift register cells to a shift register output.
